Analysis of the expression of HVEM in fresh ccRCC tissues. A. qRT-PCR measurement of HVEM mRNA expression in 30 paired fresh tumor tissues and peritumor tissues. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) mRNA was used as a loading control. P < 0.05 on paired-samples t test was regarded as statistically significant. B. Western blot assay of the expression of HVEM protein in six paired tumor and peritumor tissue samples. GAPDH was used as a loading control. P = Peritumor; T = Tumor.
